Considering they fully own all of the IP present in the OPs work, I would imagine they are within their full rights to just take it without asking. OP is lucky not to get a takedown notice and judging by his attitude he knows it. Good to see people playing nicely together :)

It’s MIT licensed. They don’t need to ask. They need to add his name to credits and/or send an email about what they did. It’s basic courtesy (plus MIT license, if you prefer).

  You need to use 3 or 4 clause BSD not MIT if you want to get in credits.

    courtesy cannot be enforced, that's the point.

    I bet if it was 3 or 4 clause BSD, somebody will say that "open source is open source, I don't care".

The games were already playable online on archive.org [1]. My project is just focussed on the old flight simulators. Especially I wanted to have a very light-weight emulator which starts within milliseconds. The major part of the emulator downloads with just 24kB compressed. I suppose I have reached the goal.
